Reportedly, Bruce Tanski Construction Development, LLC—a property management group that owns multiple apartment complexes and townhomes in New York—requires tenants to declaw their cats. PETA has reached out to the company several times, but to no avail. We need your help!

Outlawed in 22 countries, declawing is a cruel and permanently crippling surgery involving amputation of the last joint of every toe, including bones and cartilage! Persistent pain, loss of balance, nerve damage, bone chips requiring additional surgery, gangrene, and skin disorders are associated physical complications—and nails can later grow back painfully and unseen, within the paw! Declawed cats often become reclusive, depressed, and insecure and begin eliminating outside the litterbox. Psychologically changed, these animals are then bounced around from home to home or wind up at animal shelters.

Please politely urge Bruce Tanski Construction Development to join the numerous property management groups that do not require declawing. And please, forward this alert widely!
